He walked with God. Left behind are their footprints in the sand. The glimmering light from the sky shone upon the footprints of their lives. Joy and happiness shone from the two pairs of footprints. However during desperate and troubled times, during times of overwhelming sadness, during times of unbearable pain, there would only be one set of footprints.
"Dear God...during my moments of joy and happiness. During those times, you were there for me. However, when i needed you most, why were you not there for me?" God told the man, "I had always been by your side. When you were feeling helpless, in pain, anguish and tears, I walked whilst carrying you on my back." The man looked at God and said "I'm grateful for everything. Thank you."
